There was too much use of the “I did this, I did that” in the letter. Agree with the teacher. I would expect Obama to sign off on it but I’d like to hope Trump’s people would weed out the most egotistic sounding themes.

The capitalizing of Nation and Federal and such is just damn wrong. I’d be ashamed our president sent it out too.

I love what President Trump is doing, but this letter was atrociously written. I’d like to think that if you are hired to write correspondence for our President you’d write at least as well as me.

Not really. There is no other way to state it unless you do

I did the following: 1. 2. 3.

She's the typical teacher who is always right.

Judging by his tweets, I wouldn’t be surprised if he wrote it, rather than an underling. He does have a habit of capitalizing things in ways that seem random, like William Washington’s letter I posted above.
Or George’s message below:

“Notwithstanding the discouraging Accounts I have received from Col: Reed of what might be expected from the Operations below, I am determined, as the night is favourable, to cross the River, & make the attack upon Trenton in the Morning. If you can do nothing real, at least create as great a diversion as possible.”

Perhaps he should hire an English teacher to write his letters if he can find a conservative one.

Do people think Trump writes that stuff?

Do people think that he even sees 1% of the letters that go out with his auto pen signature?

The letter sucks. Whoever wrote it should not be writing letters for the President.

Yes, I understand he is ultimately responsible, but someone should buy this women and her ilk a clue.
